In Viral Videos of the Week, we pick out all the viral internet sensations that have got people talking this week. Expect dancing granddads, crazy new tech developments, epic fails and of course the occasional cat video…

This week in viral videos: the world’s oldest calculator, the Brits, a 110th birthday party, Damn Daniel and a train driver with a sense of humour…

1. Watch the world’s oldest calculator

2. Watch an announcement from the best train driver

This train driver is proof that a sense of humour really can make any bad situation better. Even late-night public transport…

3. Watch a 110 year old’s birthday

Turns out when you’ve had 109 of them already, birthdays really aren’t that interesting – but this may well be the most honest news interview we’ve ever seen. Leave the poor old lady to enjoy her coffee and take a nap in peace…

4. Watch Damn, Daniel

Because if you don’t know what we’re talking about, you need to watch this so you’ll know what people are talking about in the pub this weekend – the original video has been viewed over 45 million times, so chances are you’re going to hear about it sooner or later.

5. Watch Adele at the Brits

If you didn’t catch the Brit awards on Wednesday, you can pretty much catch up on everything you need to know in this 5-minute video. Adele scooped four Brits, swore on live TV and closed the show, so no-one else really got a look-in.
